Anyone done the recommended valve adjustment on a 140 or 150 4 stroke? I'm looking for someone who can give me an idea of how involved it is.

How many hours are on it??? whats the model and serial #?
Checking the valve lash is not that bad. I think you can, Jeff, handle it. Adjusting the valve lash on the other hand is a pain in the butt.
I have checked valve lash on Suzukis with 1000 hours on them and never checked and they were spot on.
Your concern about valve lash is it getting too small or the minimum clearance.
You can check the valve lash yourself, see if it is out of spec and then decide if you want to tackle adjusting from there.
